Facebook to Pay Internet Stars for Live Video

in media •  9 years ago 

According to the WSJ, Internet video creators and YouTube sensations stand to earn $2.2 million to experiment on Facebook Live with live broadcasts. 

Does this matter to the steemit community? Is the model dependent upon influencers adopting the platform or is this more of the same from big media, i.e., majority of value creation retained by few rather than distributed among the masses?

Have a great Hump Day!

I highly doubt this will affect anything. It's not direct competition to steemit in any way. Good on =3 though, used to enjoy that show a lot.
